Exile at the beginning: I rule the world by drawing cards

Chapter 34
After this period of busy work, nearly half of the small bucket of thick noodles cooked in the morning was sold.

The people who come and go near the wine shop are all strong men carrying burdens, with great strength and big appetite.It tastes good, so I always buy it in larger portions. When I see others adding konjac shreds to their bowls, I also add it.

Qin Mengshang was previously worried that konjac shreds would be difficult to sell. Unexpectedly, after tasting the konjac shreds in cold noodles, many people came to ask if there were any more and how they were made.

The recipe for making konjac tofu is a secret, and she still relies on it to make a living, so she just got over it with a few vague words.

The big man I met in the wine shop last time recognized Qin Meng Shang as soon as he arrived. He saw noodles on the stall and asked for a bowl without asking the price.

Qin Mengshang likes this kind of straightforward and generous person the most. He is so neat when it comes to spending money!
The big man was still unsatisfied after eating a bowl of cold noodles, so he bought some shredded konjac to take away and take back with his drink.Before leaving, he asked: "Are you coming tomorrow?"

Qin Mengshang nodded: "It's coming."

You have to persevere in whatever you do. How can you spend three days fishing and two days drying the net when you just showed your face today?If you want to keep this business going for a long time, taste is important, and hard work is even more important.

Zhou Lingqi came back after collecting several rounds of bowls. The bucket of noodles was almost empty, and the konjac shreds were almost sold out.

Qin Mengshang had been standing all morning, and his back was sore, but when he saw the bowl full of copper coins, he immediately felt refreshed and happy.

There are only one or two food stalls in the town, and they taste bland, not as good as Qin Meng Shang's noodles.There is mutton noodles in the restaurant, but they are expensive, and small business vendors like these are reluctant to spend that money.

Besides, it’s hot in July, so it’s so delicious to eat this fragrant and refreshing bowl of cold noodles.

Zhou Lingqi put down the bowl and glanced at the wooden trough containing the money, a little surprised.

I didn't feel it when I helped settle the accounts and collect the money. Now I go to collect the bowls and come back. The hole is almost filled.

After Qin Mengshang sold the last bowl, he rubbed his waist and sat on the stone pier. Thinking that he should celebrate today's opening, he gave Zhou Lingqi [-] coins to cut strips of meat from the pork stall opposite him.

Zhou Lingqi seemed to be used to being ordered around and didn't find it strange at the moment.

Just as he was about to reach out to take it, Qin Mengshang took the money back and said, "Forget it, you haven't bought meat before, so I'll go by myself."

Zhou Lingqi: "."

What do you mean, teasing him?

Qin Mengshang didn't care what he was thinking. He took the money and went to the pork stall to buy meat.

The pork stall owner had a bowl of cold noodles from her in the morning and is still thinking about it now. Hearing that she would come back tomorrow, he smiled and said yes.

Qin Mengshang came back with the meat, and Zhou Lingqi had already packed the things.

She originally thought that Zhou Lingqi was just having nothing to do and wanted to come over to have a look, but who knew that he actually came to help.Although this man is very tough-talking, he is quite good at his work.

"The market is almost over, is there anything else you want to buy?"

The weird feeling in his heart came up again, Zhou Lingqi frowned imperceptibly: "No."

Qin Mengshang said "Oh" without realizing what he was thinking. He took the money and went to the grain store to buy two more bundles of thick noodles.

Today was her first time doing business. She didn't do much, and only cooked half a bucket of noodles. Unexpectedly, they were all sold out in one morning.After seeing the profit from the business, I will be better prepared tomorrow.

It was just past time when the two of them returned to the village. The morning dew was still there and the clouds were rising and the clouds were glowing.

On the way, I met two or three women who saw them coming back from outside. They came up to them gossiping and asking questions:
"Did you go to town early this morning?"

"Daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, I heard from Aunt Chen that you stopped working in the kitchen and went to the town to sell food? How about it? Is business easy to do?" "How can business be so easy to do?" Qin Mengshang said with a distant look. He smiled politely and said, "After working all morning, it's just a few dollars more than helping in the kitchen. It's a long way. If my husband hadn't come to help me today, I wouldn't be able to do it alone."

This is ambiguous. Is it more than a day's wages for helping in the kitchen or more than a month's wages?

Judging from the appearance of the Zhou couple, they must be worth a month's wages.

The women had a calculation in their minds and wanted to ask how much they had earned, but because Zhou Lingqi was nearby, they did not dare to ask.

Not long after the Zhou family arrived, the man rarely spoke in front of others. Who would dare to touch the coldness that seemed to be absent from him?My daughter-in-law looks gentle and easy to talk to, but in fact, even powerful characters like Xu can't beat her!

It really is not that the family does not enter the house.

Qin Mengshang let them guess. The business was going to get bigger and bigger, and sooner or later they couldn't hide it.

It's just that it's not yet stable at the beginning, and talking too much will cause unnecessary trouble, so she just lets others think. After all, today's business was a small surprise for her.

As soon as she entered the house, she happily picked up the two little guys and rubbed them, while exclaiming that she really knew how to name them.

Zhou Lingqi didn't look at it and turned around to pack his things.

Qin Mengshang finished petting the dog, washed his hands and happily went into the house. He stepped on a stool to take down the money box, and sat cross-legged on the bed to count the money.

Regardless of costs, I earned nearly 18 taels this morning. If this income continues, it will be [-] taels in a month!Excluding costs and other miscellaneous expenses, the monthly net income is at least thirteen or four taels.

She put the coins away with a smile, and couldn't help but count the money she had at home. At the end of the count, her brows became more and more frowned.

"Where did the extra 130 five cents come from?"

She hasn't put any money into it recently. The salary from Hedi was used to book the table before she could warm it up. She also spent a lot on buying ingredients last time.

Did she record the wrong account, or did someone secretly stuff money into it?
At this moment, Zhou Lingqi opened the curtain and came in. Just as he was about to speak, Qin Mengshang asked first, "Ms. sir, did you put the wages in?"

"."

Zhou Lingqi's expression visibly froze, he tilted his head unnaturally, and said coldly: "There is no place to put it on me."

Qin Mengshang narrowed his eyes. Why did she feel that this man was trying to hide his identity?When Chunhua asked Chunhua to make clothes, she specifically asked her to add a pocket inside. How could there be no place to put it?

You obviously want to hand over the money and keep it together, but you have to sneak it in secretly. It's really awkward.

Zhou Lingqi, who had always been calm when things happened, felt inexplicably a little bit unreasonable to be stared at by her like this, but what he said was the truth.

He had no money for the time being at the river embankment. The food, rice and noodles at home were all bought by Qin Meng Shang, and he knew where the money box was.So it's not turned in, it's just put together.

Qin Mengshang pinched the extra copper plate and said, "130 five cents. Isn't this all your wages last month?"

Zhou Lingqi's face darkened, he said "The rabbit has given birth" and turned around to go out.

"Dabai is pregnant?!"

Qin Mengshang closed the money box, put on his shoes and rushed out.When I went to the rabbit nest, I saw five red rabbits that looked like little mice!

　Zhou Zizai is the most awkward person in the world.
